No regrets.
Not for a second do I regret taking action to keep our kids and teachers safe.

An important message on burnout with @Surgeon_General
Jennifer Paul Leiser retweeted
With people over the age of 65 accounting for 70% of deaths in Utah, this message was needed now more than ever. Thank you @Aging_MD and @EmilySpivak for your tireless efforts in urging Utahns, especially older Utahns, to get the #COVID19Vaccine as soon as they can.
“We know that age is a very strong risk factor for bad outcomes with COVID,” said @Aging_MD @UofUHealth. “So it is extremely important that older adults, at this point 70 and older, receive the vaccine as soon as possible.” kslnewsradio.com/1941425/

“Even w/ pursuit of lower cost, population health, patient centered and provider satisfying care, we are at risk of elevating the quality of care for some and exacerbating health disparities for others if we are not intentionally pursuing #healthequity as its own, unique goal...”

New paper 🚨: for many years we’ve been pursuing the #QuadrupleAim in healthcare. In this paper by @MarkRastetterMD and me, we share why #healthequity must be central to the aim, and is, in fact the #bullseye 🎯!

Let us be clear, while this is a step in the right direction, Twitter, and other social media companies and message boards, still have a lot of work to do to clean up their platforms and stop the spread of hateful ideologies and propaganda.

Can we pls stop using the phrase “free and fair” elections? People waited HOURS to vote and Black voters waited longer, some up to a day. Time is money. Also, elections are nothing but fair. The Black vote is suppressed and it’s always been this way. Stop playing yourselves.

Perhaps the single most important step that we can each take right now to reduce the spread of #COVID19 is to increase the use of face masks. Please help us share this critical message with our patients, loved ones, neighbors and community. @UofUHealth

The thing about vaccines is that, because they are preventative measures given to people without disease, it’s not really possible to know if benefits > risks without testing them on large numbers of people; i.e., doing proper phase 3 clinical trials.
.@US_FDA chief @SteveFDA suggesting he could issue EUA for a vaccine if benefit > risk
That is totally inappropriate
Unlike therapies, which are given to sick people, vaccines are given to healthy people
Needs a higher bar

My previous column, "Seven things organisations should be doing to combat racism," left too many things unsaid. So @DrNwando and I wrote the sequel, "Seven MORE things organisations should be doing to combat racism":

Check out our On Demand #STFM2020 presentation PE1: Parental Leave During Residency Training. If women in academic #FamilyMedicine are increasing, then this is an important topic for residents & faculty @juliephillips07 @aharmeling

Why are there such low number of URMs in academic family medicine? Consider the root causes (such as systemic racism) and let's make a change! #STFM2020 @AAntonikowski @DrTysonPankey @drjaysheree #MedEd @STFM_FM
